You sound much calmer and more into thinking mode this morning! My boss has a saying he uses here sometimes, "In through the nose!"
I would be willing to bet you are right on where the stories are originating. Sounds like something she would do is to still try causing trouble since he has left her and is back with you.
My intuition isn't on like yours but at least once it was dead on and my H was sort of shocked! And I think I know about the time he started picking back up with OW as it started bothering me again and it hadn't been before! I told him we are more closely connected than he realizes. Hope it gives him some second thoughts while he is out and about in the big city!!!
I like your plan for your Indian Nancy Drew skills!! Give them a better place to be put to use and a way for you to work out some of your feelings!
Good Luck & I think it is great that you and H are a team on this one!! He also it seems to be trying to understand your feelings in this matter and I think that sounds like a good step. It has to be a good feeling.
